The was perhaps the loneliest and quietest hour I have ever spent! Thank you to the one brave soul who showed up to talk a bit. And GStanley, get better! I assume that no one wants that great vastness of silence to be uploaded, you will only hear me typing as I answered my email. Well, one good thing, a kid I thought would never do his homework, just wrote a blog entry (homework) - I sit amazed! What is my next step towards webcasting with kids?

This is a recording of a skype conference call I hosted and recorded. I just randomly chopped out around 2 minutes. Audio quality is good, fairly even, but since we were all over the world, sometimes the Internet connections caused a blip.

This recording is more balanced than the first I posted here, where my partner is heard much louder than my own input. Here I called a regular phone from my skype account and increased the level of my USB Logitech mic to about 80%.

I still have not gotten to the place where I can use Audacity to record both ends of a Skype conversation. But I did not want our Puffin Adverture to go un-recorded. So I gathered all 103 third grade students in the media center, dialed up Susan of Project Puffin and left the rest to the kids. I used a Belkin microphone attached to my iPod and edited the file with Audacity. It is far from perfect - but learning was done by all! Dumb me forgot to hit the record button on the iPod for the intro - duh! http://nhe.dare.k12.nc.us/parent-student/well-worth-the-travel-tim.shtml

This audio was recorded with the PC sound recorder, edited with Audacity. I used my PC and a headset microphone.

I am looking for the best place to start our student newspaper online. On what should we put it? What has worked for you? My goals are to save trees, to disseminate to our community easily, and to teach Web 2.0 applications. All suggestions will be appreciated!

Anyone seen it? Last observed on this blog hanging out - may have skipped town with the tape and stapler from the teacher's desk. If found, please return...

Hi All,

I've been using ID3-TagIT to add meta data to my MP3 files.  

Here's a quick screencast.

Good luck class of 2.0.1!

Listen to the mp3 of GStanley's Skypecast about Skypecasting.

Here is a video for Audacity .. how to edit volume on pre-recorded audio. I did not record sound but I have a text message at the end of the video. Just trying different methods of using video!

I created a larger picture video here ! (takes longer to load)

Is there a list of assignments anywhere, so I can get a look ahead?

On Saturday (January 20th) the Open Web Publishing EVO2007 session held a synchronous session with special guest speaker Clarence Fisher.

Trying again. Persistence is the foundation to success.

Here is my intro created with audacity on a PC laptop with a Logitech USB mic. I had no idea I said so many "uhs..." when I talk! I tried editing some of them, most imperfectly. Enjoy! Looking forward to learning more.... Sharon Peters
